The whole town loved Teddy. That was the problem.
When America's favorite lifestyle queen brings her cameras to Marigold Cove, the sleepy coastal town loses its mind. Margaux Sinclair - the Lavender Queen herself - has come to film her summer special and put their little festival on nine million screens.
Chef-turned-shopkeeper Juliet Hart just wants to sell her shortbread and keep her head down.
Then, at golden hour, in the very lavender rows Jules tends, the Lavender Queen walks alone into the bloom - and doesn't walk out.
A tragic accident, everyone says. A famous allergy. A field full of bees. Case closed.
But Jules has learned the hard way that the easy answer is rarely the true one - and that her rescue dog, Biscuit, only ever growls at the guilty.
To catch a killer who murdered in plain sight, she'll have to look straight at the one person nobody in town would ever suspect: the beloved old friend who wept hardest at the graveside. And the closer she gets, the more this death tangles with the quiet, respectable hand that once reached for her own aunt...
A clean, cozy, fair-play whodunit set in a lavender-scented town full of secrets - and one dog who's never wrong.
Readers of Marigold Cove love:
- A puzzle you can actually solve, played fair to the last page
- A small town with a warm heart and a long, dark memory
- A slow-burn romance that finally turns a corner
- No gore, no graphic content - just clever, comforting suspense
Book 2 of The Lavender Hollow Mysteries. Can be read on its own - but it's even better after A Sprig of Murder.
One-click and step back into Marigold Cove.
